Gosh darnit, I keep entering a typo in my Linux command prompt!

Steps

When starting the challenge, I was provided the following information:

# Password is "userpass"
ssh -p 32279 [email protected]

Upon logging in, I was presented with the below animation and then the connection closed.

I was unsuccessful in finding a way to interrupt the animation. However, after messing around with SSH, I found I would append commands to back the ssh command such as: ssh [email protected] -p 32279 'ls'. This resulted in showing the flag.txt in the /home directory. Next, I used ssh [email protected] -p 32279 'cat flag.txt' to read the flag.txt file.

Flag: flag{36a0354fbf59df454596660742bf09eb}
